AS3 - how to start all over again a flash movie

This may be very simple, but I have no idea how to do this.

I created a photo gallery in AS3, everything is on one keyframe. In this photo gallery I have a link to home. My goal is, when someone clicks the "home" link I want everything to start over. Any ideas on how to do this in AS3?

Appreaciate it.

Solution

  • call flash player container
    usually the HTML page and use JavaScript to reload the flash player 

    flash.external.ExternalInterface.call(jsFuncRestart);

    jsFuncRestart is a JavaScript function in the HTML file

    and now in the js function just create a new object and replace the current flash object
    with the new one
